RIM launches its BlackBerry 10 OS with Some Interesting New Features

BlackBerry 10 Launched at BlaBerry World 2012 to fight with the Android and Apple.
BlackBerry 10 looks great and promises a lot.The software keyboard has clearly been given plenty of attention, but considering RIM's messaging heritage we expected as much – especially with physical keyboards on their way out. BB10 also introduces flick gestures, for example for selecting words thrown up by the text autocomplete feature.
As with the PlayBook 2.0 OS, BB10 will also support Android apps and will be the most developer-friendly BlackBerry OS to date backed by apps created with HTML5, Air Flash and CSS. Hurray for devs!
The new RIM seems to have identified its flaws and is working to change that in BB10. While Thorstein seems to genuinely think BB10 will save RIM and the BlackBerry brand, we can't help but feel the company is now extremely late to the modern mobile party. Just ask Windows Phone how it's doing. It's not doing great. It'll take a miracle to turn around BlackBerry. It also doesn't help that RIM is the one behind the "Wake Up" flashmob that popped up at an Apple Store in Sydney.
